  Came in for dinner, with my gf an friend on November 1st after moving my parents all day. Sat in the bar area, just as the Sens game was finishing the 1st period. Our server Iman was an absolute gem. Very attentive, polite an welcoming. We ate to much, had some laughs an she didn't force us to leave, but leave at own own pace, after paying.

  We don’t go to EM Often we never eat pasta dishes when we’re there we strictly go for soup and salad, combo or sandwich/pizza or something like that for a quick bite.. Years ago, when they changed from fresh salad to bag salad, I was disappointed, but I rolled with the punches.. But today the old wilted, soggy lettuce was the worst salad I’ve ever had there.. Meatball sandwich pretty sure it’s sat in the fridge for several days before they Warmed it up today to serve.. Italian wedding soup they’ve definitely changed the recipe somehow because it’s just OK. I used to really love it… Service was just OK, but when you constantly have to ask for the cheese whenever a dish brought, it’s aggravating considering that’s one of the main staples of EM… It was not busy whatsoever.. Our server was pleasant.. It’s just frustrating. I know we didn’t order a lot of monies worth of food, but the quality is right down garbage and I’m not sure we will go back ever… Sidenote, there’s no need for the kitchen stuff have to be so loud.. Sitting straight across the restaurant, you can hear them as if you’re sitting beside them..

  My family and I truly enjoyed going to Eastside Mario’s. I think over the past year we would go at least once every month. The last time we had gone, it was probably around end of July. That was the first time I can say the service was quite poor. Poor in the sense that the main meal took about 35 minutes to arrive. They had promptly given us our appetizers and starters which, of course, was great however because the main course took forever, we were so full on the appetizers that by the time the actual main course came, we pretty much packed everything up and left immediately. At the same time, we were also trying to juggle the tantrums of our toddler who has a pretty short window behaving before he starts walking around and giving us a hard time. Not blaming the restaurant at all for that but when a main course takes 35 minutes to arrive, it’s quite annoying to say the least when you’re stuffed on bread and random appetizers and have to pack the main course up after taking one bite. Anyways, for this reason, we hadn’t gone for a while, at least not as often as we typically would go. We decided to give it another shot yesterday. Wasn’t crazy busy, went around 3:30. Unfortunately the exact same situation had happened…starters came, main course took 30 minutes only for our server to come in and say hey it’ll be 10 more minutes. At that point we already planned what we were going to do, just pack everything up and go. The whole point of dining in, aside from the ambiance is to enjoy the experience of having your food while you’re still hungry and not waiting over half an hour. They apparently also increased the price of the pizza. I do like coming here as it’s family friendly, but I will not be going there again and playing a guessing game of when my food is going to come. Other than that… service is always pretty good and everyone here is great. Sucks we won’t be coming back
